Popis: Background:Anticancer treatment for breast cancer has been associated with weight gain but such observation has mainly been reported in western patients. More recent data in Asian patients have inconsistent findings. Factors including socio-demographic, clinical and lifestyle may be associated with post-diagnosis weight gain. In this prospective cohort study of women with breast cancer, the objectives were to determine the body mass index (BMI) and weight changes over 36 months after initial diagnosis and the factors associated with such changes. Methods: Chinese women with newly diagnosed early-stage breast cancer were recruited. Individual woman had her weight measured at breast cancer diagnosis (W0), at study entry (W1) and at 36-month follow-up (W2). Body height was measured at W0. We evaluated change in weight and body mass index (BMI) before and after breast cancer diagnosis.Socio-demographic, clinical and lifestyle factors were assessed to identify potential associated factors with weight changes. Results: A total of 1133 women with breast cancer had detailed weight measurements at the 3 time-points of assessment. The mean age at diagnosis was 52 years. Fifty-four percent were premenopausal at W1. The proportion of patients with stage 0-I, II and III diseases were 35%, 46% and 19%, respectively. The proportions of patients who were overweight and obese at the three assessment time-points were 21.2% and 28.5% at W0, 19.7% and 26.6% at W1, and 21.7% and 30.9% at W2 assessment, respectively. When compared to W0, the proportions of women who gained weight within 2-5kg at W1 and W2 were 2.4% and 20.6% respectively, that with weight gain of >5kg at W1 and W2 were 0.5% and 10.0% respectively; 6.1% and 19.6% of women had weight loss >2kg at W1 and W2 respectively. Compared to W0, the median value of weight change was -0.5 kg (range: -11.4, 18.3) at W1 and 0.6 kg (range: -19.6, 20.5) at W2. On multivariate analysis, only BMI at diagnosis were significantly associated with weight change betweenassessments at diagnosis and W2; the median (range) for weight changes for women who were underweight, normal, overweight and obese were respectively 0.9 (-4.8, 7.6), 0.6 (-13.2, 20.5), 0.5 (-11.5, 13.0) and 0.5 (-19.6, 12.6) kg, p Conclusions: In this prospective study of Chinese women with a history of breast cancer who were followed-up over a 36-months' period, the proportions of women with overweight and obese statuses were relatively stable; weight gain was uncommon among Hong Kong women with breast cancer during the same period. These findings are in contrast with studies conducted in the West, where weight gains were more commonly reported.
